I try to bargain with Brody on a regular basis (mostly those days where he wants nothing more than for me to sit around topless so he can nurse whenever he wants, and on whichever side he wants) by offering him snacks, but it never works.

Re: You know you're nursing a toddler when...

....you are bending over in the shower to shave your legs and your LO decides to help herself to a drink. It amazes me how big she's gotten. She's not the same helpless little one I had to fight to latch on.

Oh and finally when she hears a baby crying she's saying that the baby needs it's mommy and wants ma-milk!! for a while she kept saying that it wanted a baba - I don't know where that was coming from

DD 5/2008 nursed for 3 years and 3 months.
DS born 8/2011 nursing like a champ

Sorry for the short responses...always, always, always NAK or holding a baby

Re: You know you're nursing a toddler when...

My lo and I got the giggles playing peek a boo with my shirt while he was nursing...so sweet
